Description

Venture Investing in Science explores the critical link between financial support and revolutionary advancements in science. Douglas W. Jamison and Stephen R. Waite argue that continued investment in science is crucial to addressing global challenges, such as clean air and water, disease cures, and sustainable transportation. The authors examine how early-stage companies specializing in commercializing transformative technologies based on deep science have been overlooked by venture capitalists. They highlight the need for structural changes in capital markets and government regulation to reinvigorate science-based technological innovation. By understanding this critical link, readers can appreciate the potential of venture investing in science to drive economic dynamism and prosperity. By shedding light on the intersection of finance and scientific discovery, Venture Investing in Science offers a compelling case for supporting investment in science.
